Merz faces union anger over social welfare reforms

Chancellor Friedrich Merz (CDU) is facing significant opposition regarding social welfare reforms. He was booed at the DGB Day and also faced whistles at the Katholikentag. While business representatives are pushing for reforms, unions, represented by ver.di chief Frank Werneke, criticize Merz for not seeking consensus and reject proposals like raising the retirement age or reducing pension levels.

Conservatives Propose Major Welfare Reform to Cap Household Benefit Payments

The Conservative Party has announced plans to reform the household benefit cap, ending the automatic exemption for recipients of benefits like Personal Independence Payment (PIP). Under the proposals, households would only be exempt if all able adults work at least 16 hours per week. The changes would deliver at least £1bn of savings annually, with 2.3 million households currently claiming above the cap due to exemptions.
